description

Lightweight yet luxurious, Afterglow has a soft, creamy texture that always applies beautifully. The extremely blendable, finely milled formula goes on sheer and provides EIGHT long hours of wearable, streak-free color. The lineup? A range of scintillating shades…some with a matte finish, and others with a hint of shimmer. From pink to mauve to red-orange, there’s something for everyone. We finely milled the right balance of coated powders and pigments to create Afterglow’s perfect, super-soft texture. This method results in color that glides on effortlessly and blends beautifully (without the powdery buildup of cheaper formulas). The formula is also infused with light-diffusing pigments to enhance and perfect the skin. The gorgeous, custom gunmetal compact features a see-through fishnet “UD” cutout on the lid (so you can easily see the right shade without opening the compact).

    These are so lovely. Pigmented, buildable, very easy to blend. They feel super soft and last all day. The shade range is great, I have the shades Rapture and Obsessed. Both colours are gorgeous. I...

    The shades are pretty, but it's overpriced because there's no staying power. Also can I have the a mirror in the compact.

    I have tried many blushes, high end and low end but I have never been as happy as I am with this one. Super soft, blendable colour. I have the colours fetish and video.

    I got mine in Rapture (NC30 for reference). It may look like a muted pink in the pan, but when applied, it gives a very natural pink like as though you weren't applying any blush! The longevity...

    This formula kicks up a lot of powder, but that isn't a big deal breaker for me. I chose the shade Indecent, a very light peach color. This shows up with some layering on my light olive (C2) skin,...

    Fetish is such a pretty color in the pan, but on me, it turns orange. I’d look at the other colors they have, but I have a brighter blush from MAC that I love and I don’t need another. Ah well.

    I have to say that I love these blushes! They really do last up to 8 hours and some even longer which blows my mind. They blend really easily and they are not too sheer and not overly pigmented. I...
